I'm actually torn, as to this coming Saturday:  Bay Area Debian is
having another "build in" at someone's house in Alameda, which I could
attend the early part of (I guess) before having to hotfoot it back over
to Menlo Park for this coming Saturday's CABAL meeting.

(Actually, to correct myself:  The BAD meeting is this Wednesday, to
_prepare_ for the Saturday build-in event in Alameda.)
